There is a certain magic that is bound to happen when a beautiful School teacher with an incredible zest for life falls in love with a handsome, laid-back landscape architect. Casey and Nathan are a match made in heaven, and when they chose Stradbroke Island for their Wedding day and invited their closest friends and family, and their trusty canine companion Duskie along for the ride, it was sure to be an amazing weekend. After ferrying across truckloads of pallet furniture that they had together made by hand, with the help of their closest friends, this pair styled their entire reception venue the night before their big day. When it was time to say “I do”, they exchanged vows on a beautiful hillside just above Deadman’s Beach, on what was a perfectly overcast day. There were lots of smiles, cold beers, great food and amazing company. Duskie did a perfect job of delivering the rings. After hugs and kisses, and some time to soak it all in, we ducked away for a little while to enjoy the serenity of the ocean. The sea breeze grew stronger and the newlyweds took shelter in eachother’s arms, listening to nothing but the sound of the waves crashing against Straddie’s North Gorge, and eachother. Casey and Nathan returned to Point Lookout to watch the sun set, and the moon rise, barefoot, throwing a stick to their best mate Duskie. They then made their way back to the lights and welcoming arms of their guests at the Point Lookout Surf Club, and danced the night away to the incredible reggae duo ‘Alvin’. A big shout-out to Point Lookout function manager, celebrant, bus driver, bar-tender and all-round legend Sheryl. And Stradbroke Island events for the finishing touches.

With the incredible mateship, positivity and love for life that these guys have, I believe anything is possible for them.
